Ready to report your loss?
The sooner you file, the sooner we start routing your report and keeping it active across all channels. Most items get found within the first few weeks, but we keep searching for your entire period so you're covered.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Dania Beach means contacting the Broward Sheriff's Office, checking with city services, reaching out to Broward County Transit if you lost it on a bus, and scanning multiple community channels. Each office keeps its own records, and there's no single place that sees everything. By the time you've called them all, days have passed.
ReportLost bridges that gap. One report to us gets your loss documented and routed to every relevant local authority, transit service, and active community group at once. Then your report stays active for months, automatically matching your description against new found items posted anywhere in the area. Once you've filed with us, you can breathe easy, knowing we're doing the daily legwork so you don't have to.

Frequently asked questions about lost items in Dania Beach
How long do the Sheriff's Office and transit keep found items in their lost and found?
The Broward Sheriff's Office and Broward County Transit typically hold items for 30 to 90 days before disposing of them. The sooner you report your loss and contact them, the better your chances of recovery. We recommend reaching out within the first week.
What if I lost something at Fort Lauderdale Airport?
The FLL lost and found office is located in the Rental Car Center on Level 2. They're open Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can call 954-359-2247, ext. 3, or email airportlf@broward.org with a description. The sooner you call, the sooner they can check for your item.
What should I do if I lost something on a Broward County Transit bus?
Contact Broward County Transit's lost and found at 954-357-8400. They're open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Have your bus route number and the approximate time you rode ready. Describe your item clearly so they can check their holdings.
If I lost my pet, what's the first step?
Call Broward County Animal Care at 954-359-1313 immediately to report your pet missing and ask if they've received a stray matching your description. You can also contact Dania Beach Animal Safety at 954-357-9758. Then file a priority lost pet report with us to get the community searching.
How does ReportLost differ from calling these agencies myself?
You'd normally have to call the Sheriff's Office, check with the city, contact transit, reach out to the airport if needed, and post across multiple social groups, all separately. ReportLost does that routing for you in one report. Then your report stays active for 12 months, automatically matching your description against new found items, so you don't have to manually check every day.
Is ReportLost.org an official city or police service?
No. ReportLost is an independent service that works alongside local authorities, not as a replacement for them. When you report with us, we notify the official Broward Sheriff's Office, city services, transit, and other relevant agencies, and we keep your report actively searching during your entire period. We're a coordination and continuity tool that makes sure your loss stays on the radar.
